Abstract: An implementation of a system, device and method for projecting a visual indicator against a surface is provided. A display projection system in a handheld sensor device (e.g. a handheld wall scanner) projects a static or computer-controlled dynamic pattern of light onto a surface being scanned to indicate a specific feature, such as existence of solid structures of wood, metal or plastic, electric or magnetic fields, or a disturbance of a field. The projected light may be controlled by a computer via an aperture to allow flexibility in what is projected, such as icons, lines, graphics, characters and colors.

Title: Atmospheric water generator
Inventor: SEOANE DIEGO CASTANON
IPC: F25B39/02
Filed: 2009-06-08
Abstract: An atmospheric water generator includes a refrigeration system. The evaporators may be roll-bond evaporators. Fans cooperate with a radiator and the evaporators to induce an in-flow stream of air from ambient air into and through, firstly, the con-denser, and secondly, the radiator. The in-flow stream of air is cooled by the evaporator as the in-flow stream passes through the evaporator. The cooled stream of air then passes through a heated dissipating section of the radiator. The airways between the evapo-rators in the array are sufficiently long so that the streams of air become turbulently mixed. The evaporators may be planar. Op-posed facing surfaces of adjacent evaporators may include turbu-lent flow trippers to change laminar flow in the airways to turbu-lent flow. The turbulent flow trippers may include protrusions formed on the opposed facing surfaces or metallic mesh inter-leaved in the airways between the evaporators.

Abstract: A helix antenna especially aimed for the satellite connections of mobile devices. The antenna (300) is to be fed from above, and all its radiators are side by side on a same geometric cylindrical surface. The antenna has at least two resonances. In the case of two-resonance every second radiator (321, 323, 325, 327) resonates at a lower frequency and the rest of the radiators (322, 324, 326, 328) at another, higher frequency, the frequency difference being based on the difference in the physical length of the radiators. One conductor of the feed line of the antenna is connected directly to a half of the radiators and the other conductor to the second half of the radiators. No separate feed circuit for the phase shifts is required in an antenna with plurality of helix radiators,because the phasing can be implemented by the positioning of the radiators and the fine tuning of their length. The antenna structure is simple, in which case its production costs are relatively low.
